People watching

 I like train stations, airports, gyms, bars and schools because each place offers such an immense classroom for the human observer. It's like another extreme version of reality TV, but you have to use your imagination a little bit for the plot lines. THe bonus is that you are observing reality as reality gets. Even in our own experiance or reality we are subjected to our own personal biases, but as observers there maybe that personal bias, but as observers, we are able to formulate better and more objective opinions about the world around us.

 Sometimes I do feel like that outsider. Then when I am even approached with a conversation to start, I want to pull out my journal and follow guideline 1-13-01, 'return gesture by buying drink for her and yourself. Then comment on her jewrley. Proceed to ask about recent movies. Lead into books, music and sports' 'If conversation proceed beyond that, proceed to 2-14-03 - London.'

In all honesty, I just like to write about it.
